Four-time winner but not since Irish Cambridgeshire win of 2024; definite encouragement on second start back off reduced mark without quite staying this trip at Leopardstown; blinkers now replace visor and now 11lb below career-high mark but stamina remains a concern at this trip. |

Smart sort is only 4-29 but has run well in defeat many times in quality races including when beaten 2.5l into fourth over C&D off 95 in October; this ground could be a bit too testing for him on return but the veteran could still go well. |

Lightly raced on AW in Ireland but he has improved significantly since blinkers were added, most recently running away with a 1m handicap at Dundalk in January (taking him to 3-3 in headgear); no issue with the longer trip (won over 1m4f on penultimate start) but a 13lb rise for last time (raised a total of 28lb for the three wins), allied to significantly stronger opposition, could leave him vulnerable; his tendency to hang sharply right won't be an asset here either. |

Gained a second win over this trip at Leopardstown last season and successful over 1m since; back to form with 1l defeat at Gowran in July but couldn't build on that a fortnight ago; should be suited by the surface and Patrick Mullins is an eyecatching jockey booking; interesting contender despite not looking particularly well treated at present. |

Joined this yard last autumn; gained his fourth course win (eighth win in all) over 1m in December; unplaced on next start; more like it when fourth in a claimer on latest. |

9st 6lb |
Not long with this yard but gained eighth career win here over 1m when coming late off much reduced mark last month; failed to back that up from 6lb higher last week; veteran is opposable on these terms. |
